The Vegan's Notebook

Health

Vegetarians and vegans enjoy better health than their omnivore peers, as
a group. The most consistent professional advice over time has suggested
that a vegetarian diet with sufficient caloric intake is healthier than
a non-vegetarian diet with similar caloric intake. Increasing the diversity
of the vegetarian diet increases the health benefits. Personally, I've
often wondered - how do omnivores really increase the diversity of their diet
other than by increasing the variety of the vegetarian foods they must eat?

Vegetarian eating habits can be very good for your cardiovascular health.
They easily fit very well with the other, well-proven, guidance given
for good heart health. Also, they point out that such a diet is good
for health in general.
